Miles walked: 10.4. Six of those were on the path and 4.4 of those were around Logro\u00f1o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elevation gained in flights of stairs equivalence: 14. Not a lot of up and down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today we walked the short six mile distance between Viana and Logro\u00f1o. We were out of the hotel in Viana by about 7:20 and in Logro\u00f1o by 10:30. We are staying here in the big city for two days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We crossed into La Rioja today. Logro\u00f1o, population 200,000, is the capital of La Rioja. So, we have left Basque country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have an apartment with a kitchen. I was going to say “little apartment” but it’s actually quite roomy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We enjoyed going to the nearby grocery store and buying good bread and cheese and tomatoes and a salad kit and made lunch “at home”. We also got food for breakfast in the morning. Logro\u00f1o is famous for its tapas, but I have a feeling we are going to eat most of our meals in the apartment. We have such fun going to the grocery store and finding great things to bring home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We did errandy things today like a post office pickup, grocery shopping, laundry. We are glad to have another day to spend in Logro\u00f1o. Tomorrow we can tell you more about the city itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The walk was nicer than I expected since I knew we would be walking on the outskirts of Logro\u00f1o. We went through some industrial stuff but not a lot. We went through a few tunnels to go under highways. I enjoy seeing the picture that gets framed at the end of a tunnel. The above is looking back.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a>
And this is looking forward. There is always graffiti in the tunnels.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We passed this monument.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It says “In this place were assassinated on September 3, 1936, 25 residents of the Riojan towns of \u00c1balos and San Vicente de la Sonsierra, victims of the Franco repression. The people who forget their history are condemned to repeat it.”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This man was busy tending his window plants. He had grape vines growing all over the front of his house. We are in wine country!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a>
We crossed the Rio Ebro just before entering Logro\u00f1o. The Ebro is the longest river entirely in Spain.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Our home for two days.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
